Artificial Neural Networks in Cancer Diagnosis, Prognosis, and Patient Management brings together the work of top researchers to present the results of their state-of-the-art work with ANNs as applied to nearly all major areas of cancer for diagnosis, prognosis, and management of the disease. It introduces the theory of neural networks and the meth > \nThe potential value of artificial neural networks (ANN) as a predictor of malignancy has begun to receive increased recognition. Research and case studies can be found scattered throughout a multitude of journals. Artificial Neural Networks in Cancer Diagnosis, Prognosis, and Patient Management brings together the work of top researchers - primarily clinicians - who present the results of their state-of-the-art work with ANNs as applied to nearly all major areas of cancer for diagnosis, prognosis, and management of the disease.\n\nThe book introduces the theory of neural networks and the method of their application in oncology.
